        Verdict

        ELZAAL (NAP) has now won five of his last six outings over course and distance and the handicapper hasn’t caught up with him yet. He’s preferred to Saaheq, who got his head back in front when successful at Chelmsford last month. Princess Karine was narrowly beaten here before upped in class at Beverley and Sugar Baby just missed out over track and trip back in November. Yaahobby also placed last time but that was in a lower grade over 6f.
